This is so funny, or maybe it is your narration! :) I agree with the carpet! We have wood floors in our rental, and when I have a home of my own, wood floors throughout, except some subway tiles in the bathroom would be neat! Can't wait for the rest of the booklet! Happy weekend my friend! xo Heather

Im so glad I dance to the beat of my own drum.. and Ive never been a rule follower! though, my house is a disaster...hmmmm....lol.. what a fun book you found!I have a "how to be a homemaker" book somewhere that tells you when and how to clean everything to keep your house sparkling clean! (mmm...maybe I should read it)Just trying to get caught up in blogland a little this morning Renee and I want to thank you again for all the love, support and prayers over the last few weeks. This blogging community rocks. Im hoping that my family can just relax and rest this weekend. we all seriously need it.Youre a good friend, and I truly appreciate you. have a great weekend!xoxo

Renee, Your boys in their scout uniforms will be so treasured years from now. It's wonderful. I love the picnic tin with it's little blue flowers. These decorating posts are so much fun. Funny, all my relatives in Michigan have the dropped down painted ceilings. Must be a Midwest thing! Have a great weekend, I know those boy are! E

I'm catching up on your blog here as I have missed the last couple posts. The tags below are darling as well as the 'mending' heart! The boys are sweet going off the camp and your heat sound unbearable!!

Hi Renee!I hope you are braving the heat and that your boys made it home to air conditioning! I feel guilty because where I live at 3600 ft above sea level it's quite comfortable. Last night I woke up because my feet got cold.

It's so funny to look at those old decorating photos...They remind me of my parents living room..and, my first kitchen with harvest gold and avocado green! Uggghhhh! It's so refreshing to live with pastels, brights and lively prints. I wonder what our kids will think someday when they look back at our current decor.

I hope you have a great week, my sweet friend!Blessings and thanks for your kind comment on my patriotic post!Sending cool breezes your way,Carolynn xo
